RSSB, as a branch of the Sant Mat ("Path of Saints") religious philosophy, is led by a guru who is considered by the faithful to be God in human form. Or at least, as divinely realized as any human being can be. The current RSSB guru is Gurinder Singh Dhillon. He has two sons, Gurpreet Singh Dhillon (age 26) and Gurkirat Singh Dhillon (age 20). Gurpreet and Gurkirat are substantial shareholders in a company calledReligare. Religare and Fortis, another large Indian company, are part of a family conglomerate headed by Malvinder Singh and Shivinder Singh. [update: a commenter on this post wrote, "Malvinder Singh and Shivinder Singh of Ranbaxy are the grandsons of Charan S…

The picture apparently is that of Guru Gobind Singh ji.s White .Baz. or Falcon according to RSS (http://www.sangatsansar.com/writereaddata/...IN%20NANDED.pdf ) Strange that it looks more like an eagle than the Gyr falcon that Guru Ji used to keep. Is this more RSS pakhand ? (Please can admin change the topic to read Hazur Sahib.

wjkk wjkf I have seen a lot of Singhs wear a Chand (photo above) on their dastaar, even I have worn one on my dastaar. I was asked by someone - "What is that?" I said, "A Khanda!" "No it isn't! Where's the Chakar and the Miri Piri Swords are not there, its a moon." I was stuck what to say, Later a Singh who (unfortunately) follows/influenced by Snatan Sikhi (no names mentioned) said that the Chand represents "SHIVA". I was shocked. He said that it represents "SHIV LING" (Shiv Ling - Hindu's worship the private parts of Shiva to seek strength). He said that khanda in the middle represented Shiva's main male private part and that the things dangling down represent…

If you guys have got Sky Digital, there's this channel called Aastha, channel 828. Really its a Hindu channel cuz its all about the worshipping of Hindu god's and goddesses but everyday at about 1:30pm-3pm Rehraas Sahib comes live from Sri Hazoor Sahib. After Rehraas Sahib is done, aarti commences. This Singh comes out with this taali, basically set on fire and gives it to this Singh who does seva for Guru Gobind Singh's shastar...he waves the flame around the shastar and a picture of Guru Gobind Singh five times. During the Aarti, the part where it comes to 'Gopal tera Aarta' the other Singh waves the taali around Guru Granth Sahib Ji 5 times. Is this really necessa…

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=emyJMkPV4fA&feature=related Why are we turning a blind eye to all this? There were 292,800 Christians in whole Punjab in 2001 (census). Now there are 900,000. Thats what they say, exaggerated figures? Yes maybe, but their numbers have atleast doubled. One guy named Harbhajan Sion (in videos too) alone convert 2800 people from his village.

sangat ji for those who want to know why sampooran rehraas sahib is not recited at harminder sahib anymore. it all started in 1920. Please visit the link and read the page 181-183 about the reduction of rehraas sahib. and remember this book is written by sant gurbachan singh ji bhindranwale himself. it is sad that there is no sri dasam granth parkash in akal takht also which has also reduced the power of khalsa panth. all maryadas are not properly being carried out, the consequences are very clear that only few true sikhs are left in this world. http://www.scribd.co...ani-path-darpan please also give your shudh thoughts
